Beautiful drive along Highway 1 in
Maine. Every once in awhile a surprise view of the bay would show up. Such a
treat! I stopped at Roque Bluffs Beach State Park for lunch.
Rose bushes all over! the air smells wonderful. I picked some petals for my van :-) |

Good bye U.S. |
New Brunswick, here I come! |
Ok, I know, it’s only going to Canada. Nothing stressful. Easy peasy.
And it was until I started driving. It’s really hard to read directions, figure
out the highway signs, and make quick turns while driving. But since I missed the first exit, look who I got to meet!
I pulled over, consulted Tina, my navigator, and got her set for
Canada, New Brunswick. (Tina, Bossy Pants) Back on the highway speed sign says
60 then 70, and I’m thinking they go fast here! Then 90!!! And it dawns on me.
Hahaha! Even though my van is made in Canada, there are no little kms anywhere
on the speedometer to help out. But I have taught KM to M, so I make a good
guess. Now I am keeping up without speeding and feeling pretty good about the
road. They use really weird symbols on the highway exit signs-a hand holding an
urn?!? I was hoping the customs
agent had given me a ‘tell all’ about driving in Canada paper in this big fat
envelope he handed me. Just a survey, so helpful! I have stopped in St. John
for 2 days to settle in and investigate a few things more closely.
